voltage! Required electrical work must only
be performed by an electrical specialist.

– The socket must be secured through a
residual current device (RCD) with a
115-240
triggering current of 30 mA.
1~
– This socket must be located close to the
50-60
work station so that the plug can be
12 pulled immediately in case of an emer-
gency.

– The interior cleaner is standard
equipped with spray nozzles that are
designed for a flow rate of 900-1200 l/h
M22x1,5
(15-20 l/min) (nozzle set no. 2).
– If the high-pressure pump has a differ-
G 1/2
ent flow rate, the nozzles must be re-
40
placed as per the table.
– The minimum pressure value of the reg-
1200
ulating valve must be set prior to switch-
900
ing on the high-pressure pump. This
way, the interior cleaner will not be ex-
4,8 posed to pressure peaks when switch-
ing on.

Operation

DANGER
Risk of injury on account of the escaping
water jet that could be hot!
– Only use the interior cleaner in closed
containers.
– Only insert the interior cleaner into a
container or switch it into another con-
tainer while the separate high pressure
pump and internal drive are turned off.
DANGER
Risk of electric shock!
– Using the attached Velcro parts, posi-
tion the power supply so that is protect-
ed from water spray.
– Protect the extension cable from spray
water.
Note
Try to set up the interior cleaner in the
center of an area.
